So good that he doesn't want to see me for 5 years! I turn 65 in a few months.
I AM CURED!
PS- Bear with me as I make this a new post, as well. I must encourage "new" people.

That is exactly the mind set you need to focus on.
I'm stage 4 and I am prepared to battle (am battling) for my life. I. Will. Survive. My subconscious is also in the battle with me. After my last CEA (was 202) I had a dream that the next one was 112. It wasn't far off. It's now down to 109.

Congratulation on your NED status. I'm a 13 yr survivor. That word, psoriasis, caught my attention. Last summer, I was diagnosed with psoriasis. Dr was a bit surprised as I guess most people are diagnosed in there mid 20's, not their late 50's.
Anyway I always suspected my cancer/chemo treatment has something to do with me getting psoriasis. They threw the kitchen sink at me too. In fact when I got FOLFOX it was only available for stage IV folks. I was a stage IIIC. It was an experimental drug back in 2004. I was my Onc 1st and only patient for many months to get FOLFOX. I was selected for my overall good health and young age (47). To read they threw the kitchen sink at you too, I suspect there is a connection.
Thank you for checking in and the update.
